Ultraformer III

Ultraformer III - Also known as HIFU

Ultraformer III uses High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound, HIFU, to deliver focused energy to specific layers beneath the skin's surface. It is one of the advanced energy-based devices available at Burnside Cosmetic, and one of Nurse Claire Koulos's most requested treatments.

Precision technology, personalised approach. Every treatment using this technology starts with a consultation, because the right approach depends entirely on your individual skin.

Areas we focus on

The areas patients ask about most often are the ones that bother them most, and the submentum, the area under the chin, is the single biggest area of focus we see. Alongside this, Ultraformer III is commonly used on the lower face for those looking for a non-surgical approach, the under eye area where skin texture becomes finer and harder to treat, and the upper lip for fine lines that form around the mouth over time.

Ultraformer III can be used as a standalone treatment or combined with other technologies, depending on what your skin needs.

Ultraformer III is an advanced non-invasive ultrasound device used to help address skin laxity, sagging and signs of ageing.
Ultraformer III uses focused ultrasound energy to target different layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production, which may contribute to a tightening effect over time.
Ultraformer III can be used to help address concerns such as wrinkles, fine lines, sagging skin, jawline definition and neck laxity.
Ultraformer III is a non-invasive procedure that does not involve surgery or incisions.
The number of sessions required may vary depending on the individual's skin condition and treatment goals. This is something to discuss with your practitioner at consultation.
There is typically no downtime associated with Ultraformer III treatments. Patients can usually resume their regular activities immediately after the procedure.
Patients may experience some discomfort during the treatment, often described as a sensation of heat or tingling. However, most individuals find the discomfort to be tolerable.
Common side effects of Ultraformer III treatment may include temporary redness, swelling, or mild tenderness in the treated area. These side effects typically resolve on their own within a few hours to days.
Individual results vary, and any changes may be noticeable for several months to over a year depending on skin factors and the level of skin laxity. Periodic touch-up sessions may be recommended to help maintain results over time.
Ultraformer III may be suitable for individuals with mild to moderate skin laxity or ageing concerns interested in a non-surgical approach. A consultation with Dr Chris Koulos or Nurse Claire Koulos will determine if Ultraformer III is suitable for your specific needs.
